Abstract

Objective We investigated the variation in patient-reported decision-making roles in the past year of life among patients with metastatic solid cancer and the associations of these roles with patient quality of life and perceived quality of care. Methods We used the last year of life data of 393 deceased patients from a prospective cohort study. Patients reported their decision-making roles, quality of life (emotional well-being, spiritual well-being, and psychological distress) and perceived quality of care (care coordination and physician communication) every 3 months until death. We used mixed effects linear regressions to investigate the associations of decision-making roles with patients’ quality of life and perceived quality of care. Results The most reported roles, on average, were patient-led (37.9%) and joint (23.4%; with physicians and/or family caregivers) decision making, followed by no patient involvement (14.8%), physician/family-led (12.9%), and patient alone (11.0%) decision making. Patient level of involvement in decision making decreased slightly as death approached ( P
